Package: cl-series
Version: 1:2.2.7-1
Severity: important

I am trying to use the CL-SERIES Debian package on LispWorks 4.2.7 for
Linux.  After (REQUIRE :SERIES), when trying to evaluate a simple
expression like (LET ((HT (MAKE-HASH-TABLE))) HT), I get the error
"Undefined function SERIES::SPECIAL-FORM-P called with arguments
(MAKE-HASH-TABLE)."

I believe that *FEATURES* does not contain :SERIES-ANSI when
s-code.lisp is compiled; consequently, NOT-EXPR-LIKE-SPECIAL-FORM-P
tries to use SPECIAL-FORM-P instead of (the ANSI compliant)
SPECIAL-OPERATOR-P.

I thought the following, from s-package.lisp, should work, but it
doesn't:

  ;;; Note this is really too early, but we need it here
  #+(or draft-ansi-cl draft-ansi-cl-2 ansi-cl allegro cmu sbcl Genera
  Harlequin-Common-Lisp CLISP mcl)
  (cl:eval-when (load eval compile)
    (cl:pushnew ':series-ansi cl:*features*))

I am not 100% sure about this, but it seems that :SERIES-ANSI is added
to *FEATURES* in the evaluation environment, but not in the startup
environment.  (Which I think is conforming behavior.)  Thus,
*FEATURES* contains :SERIES-ANSI while compiling s-package.lisp, but
after the compilation is finished, *FEATURES* is what is was before
s-package.lisp was compiled.

This is not a problem with the Series package from Sourceforge because
it uses mk-defsystem.  MK:COMPILE-SYSTEM loads each file after compiling
it, so s-package will be loaded before s-code is compiled.

I am not sure what the right way to fix this is.  Can ASDF be persuaded
to load each file after compiling it, just like mk-defsystem?

Thanks,
Vebjorn

Hello,

I'm closing older bugs that litter the bts at the moment.

220797 is non-relevant because we don't do lispworks anymore ;-)
212018 is fixed in sarge
278137 I don't want to fix because the generation is brittle and depends
        on latex2html (a non-free package)
282716 because the memory system is unlikely to change any time soon
319427 because it is a ubuntu bug and should be fixed if you use the
        people.debian.org/~pvaneynd repository

If you think this is unfair, please reopen and yell at me :-)

Groetjes, Peter
